I was in there for 36 months. around 1981. 6 months in Exeter then Dartmoor. I remember going to a quarry and breaking big boulders into pieces. We worked in pairs and were given pneumatic drills to make holes and steel wedges that we banged into the holes to split these massive boulders. Eventually, once the rocks were of a certain size they would go into a big grinding machine. The small stones were used in making roads. This was around 1981. I also worked on the farm doing an assortment of things. I do remember the winter was cold but I made some great friends there. I was 23 at the time and it was the last prison i was ever in.
Cheers for this chap. One of our mates has been sent here and your insight gives us plenty of hope, to help know that he might have still have some luxuries. Really appreciate it.
@@Jenjenbuttonx I'm sure your dad is around my age 51? , I'm sorry if wrong , good thing is us old uns who have done bird before just get left alone , we have nothing to prove like these you uns today. Same goes for your dad , I'd get a job , keep busy , cause of Covid lot of jail's giving extra £5 on canteen for phones . Dartmoor classed as working jail , so they like you to work. Lots to do down the moor , used to have farm . Yeah overall usual missing his family , cause it's easy nowadays ,you got a phone in yet cell now , but a letter now and again is nice , personal touch for your dad aswell . Hope he gets out soon , the jail's are packed at moment with the amount of Prison recalls ,so fingers crossed he might be eligible for tagging . Good luck to you all .
@@ianfroud70 thank you for your kind words, he’s a bit older but he likes going out and about he hates sitting still for too long so sounds like an alright place to be considering. It’s handy that we can send emails or letters so will be doing that on the regular. Take care
Very interesting video. I've always been interested in Prison life/movies etc for some reason nd my wife worked here for one year for her gap year at Uni, so it was interesting to hear about life on the other side.
Cheers, dude. I've got a mate banged up in there for a few years, so it's nice to hear a little bit about what it's like since we don't seem to get much time to chat on the phone.
Thanks for the upload, really interesting! Sounds quite similar to HMP Butlins at Bognor Regis, ok, it's not really a HMP, but it feels like it sometimes!
My stepfather served five years there in the early 70s. I wish I'd asked him more about it - although he wasn't generally one for reminiscing about his time inside - he did tell me about one particular screw who would say 'my cat told me' whenever anyone asked how he found out about some piece of skullduggery or the other. When someone finally 'delt' with the cat and everyone was told that they should give up the culprit, some wag said aloud, 'ask your cat!'
Loved Dartmoor. Gym is decent and the gym screws were good blokes and my time flew. I done 2 years on G wing and a year on the RSU before going to Channings before release. My ex girlfriends dad works there as a screw still. We kept our relationship on the quiet. Exeter is a dump. D-wing was okay once you get enhanced. They put the chips in bags now to stop the grief lol. Funny listening back to your experience.
Strangely Dartmoor was my favourite. Good news about the chips, that will save a few lives! Interesting about the member of staff, that can cause real issues for everyone
@@WilliamBonneyPodcast yeah i wont say his name in case i ever get put inside again.... although i have no plans. I now live in Koh Samui Thailand. Pinchy was my personal officer on the RSU.
Hi, I was in Dartmoor, during covid too. The regime has changed completely. I have left recently and things have started to go back to normal. The Braille workshop is amazing, but otherwise it is a shit hole. I was in G wing for a couple of months, then I went to A wing. Met amazing friends there.
In America I heard if you get in a fight, you get put in the hole (very basic cell, on your own, for a period of time), is this the same in English prisons?
Dartmoor is now shut for 18 months, as theres radion vapour, in the granite walls n ground so every one has been shipped to other prison ,.we went there yesday and as we drove up the hill it was foggy n in that fog was the prison. ...its very eery to seee that .. its now a cat c prison
Mate I had to laugh when you said you had breakfast packs and got up about 8 and cells left open .In my day you would have been up ,made your bed pack and been and had breakfast and ablutions done by 8.Then banged up till dinner time at 11.30 ( half hour exercise if you were lucky before dinner) and in the early days (73) couldn’t even sit on your bed without getting nicked.No wonder the nicks are full up now,TVs,playstations etc 🤣🤣🤣.We used to earn 15 to 18 p a week ,no private canteen back then .
What about the gangs..? How do you avoid them? What are you doing now ? I find myself listening to you at work !! How weird .. you sound well spoken and would never think your a ex criminal? You need to do a story on the most interesting characters you met.. I have met a few.. not in prison.. just through life... as an ex raver and well into hiphop .. propa south London ..I can sense characters..
Regarding phones. Hopefully no one reading this will ever end up going inside, but just in case....There are now mobile phones available that are really tiny! About 4cm, by 1.5cm. No internet, but they do phone calls, text messages, and they've got a built in FM radio. Looks like a mini Nokia 3330 and they cost about 30 quid. I've just spent the last 2 weeks in a drugs rehab unit, and phones were banned except for a couple of hours in the evening, but it was easy to smuggle one of these little ones in without having to resort to the 'prison pocket'!
Was in hmp Maidstone back 2005 had similar sort of ragime another Cushdy jail back in the day. Now only houses sex offenders and foreign nationals. Loving the stories bro keep up the good work
Been there 2wice maself pal. Luvd it! 2002 & 2005/6. Devastated u just told me it's now a nonces Jail, FUCK SAKES. But hey, everything you said was bang on so much respect my brother 👊
Basically how it was.remember the rush for gym in the morning.I remember a screw called Mr butler I think.this was 15 yrs ago.thought he was still in the army.was a decent jail.time flew for me tho I only did 9 months.
A couple of people I know did time in Dartmoor prison. Because they used to send prisoners there from Cardiff prison. And I know someone who was transferred to Dartmoor prison from parc prison in Bridgend. I heard that you got to be serving 18 months or over to do your time in Dartmoor prison. Getting back to when you said that you heard it's closing soon they was going to close it this year. But it's going to remain open for the foreseeable future. And I read a while back that David Norris is in Dartmoor prison. The one who murdered Stephen Lawrence in London in 1993. And David Norris got slashed in Dartmoor prison. Well he's been attacked in prison a few times and the other bloke Gary Dobbs. They was in belmarsh on remand then they was in Wakefield and gartree. And they got attacked in them prisons aswell
@Harry-ud3rv yep he's still there...comes out this October.. and sorry i haven't a clue how his experience has been like there as not visited and don't intend to.. its been good reading the comments though for me as its given me an insight as to what it may be like for him.
@@moonstarshine2935 Hope it works out for you both. I’ve never been to prison and hope to keep it that way but videos like these fascinate me. I don’t think you can get sent straight to Dartmoor so was he sent from somewhere else? They’ve got people from all over the UK down there, I know it can be bleak at times but at least he’s there for summer and out by winter
I worked in the nodey shop makeing garden gnomes all day I was there in 2012 i was away for burglary was on remand at hmp highdown near Croydon south london then got shipped down there I was only one on the bus turns out the house i drummed was a screws gaff so got ghosted down there I thought it was a shit hole no weed or fuck all in there it was dead while I was there only saw one mobile phone
Can't remember what year I was in there but not long after being there they moved everyone to another wing because they was getting rid of slop out and the week I left the y started putting TVs in the cells ...I did not mind Dartmoor as my time went quickly and all single cells ...it's a buzz getting released and they take all the lads to Plymouth train station and the lads get on the train with the beers ...most of my sentences I've done was in HMp Bristol and I hate that jail... Dartmoor is mainly sex offenders now ...
That’s a great idea for all prisons. Having a cat D within the prison, gives the prisoners an incentive. It’s a shame these numbers are just getting bigger with the sex offenders and rapist. 70% of most prisons are full of them. Interesting podcast 👍
The prison seems ideal..it's better than working full time for high rents or mortgage earning the national minimum wage Fed 3 times a day ,TV use of a gym ,sleep when you want ... fucking sign me up
Spent 6 years in Dartmoor. Is a great jail. If you can call it that. G WING was madness then E wing for enhanced STRAIGHT prisoners. Hated the last year because full of monsters shipped in from all of the UK. Mr reveal, Mr smalldon, Mr Mac, banging officers Dartmoor has its own rules you want a hard time you get it hard. 😉
Barlinnie is like that, screws jail, if you want beat up the screws are happy to oblige, but if you want to get yer head down and get on it's a fast jail.
Bro it's a re-upload please don't become like channel Dave with the repeats your way to good for this behaviour. Fuck it go mad. Get camera. Go up to copper head butt him. Go guilty. Film inside prisons. Randomly headbutt everyone. End of every fight look straight into camera say-;like & subscribe. You got this. Can't wait you'll be able to upload day in the life at Broadmoor then
Spent years there. And Exeter and channings. It ain't foggy in summer though. Fuckin roasting working out on the farm and museum. Was built by French and American prisoners brought up from the hulk ships in Plymouth in around 1816. There's 2 mass graveyards around the side. Used to work them. Get teeth and shit coming up. I was on the Resettlement unit for 2 an half years as well. Fuckin freezing in winter. Its a bird killer though and time flies.... had a listener job. So could move around the jail.😉
@@WilliamBonneyPodcast yes garth and nigel. Pair of mad bastards lol. I am fb friends with 5 inmates who were on RSU.. do you Remember Dean Light? Killed himself few years back. Tragic. They suppose to be closing the jail this year. Maybe have guided tours. They sold the farm years ago to the other farm that was there
If you went on the podcast I went on you will hit 10k subscribers few days later. Its just real prison talk with an ex screw. I fuckin slated governor Luscombe. The prick
@@WilliamBonneyPodcast just spoke to tux m8. Me and you was friends on my old fb account... ha ha. Yeah I knew the voice was familiar. I moved down there a few years ago. Didn't work out so came back. Good stuff m8 👍
One man one sausage lol .... was no 1 on the servery for remand then start of sentence... was in high point 99 when the TVs first came .. south 5 lol .. Met couple decent lads ... often wonder what has become of that wee click.
@@jaymedway9724 I moved from south 3 over to south 5 ... j wing ... was in j 5 .... 5th person to get a tv ... south wing was super enhanced lol ... we had to sign a compact.... we had a tight wee group of us we kept ourselves to ourselves... was no secret that k wing had some baddies on it .... I got my d cat then went to the bay and got parole.
When i was there lester piggot a jocky was in there he was across the other jail ( i was in main, 4xto a cell i did a month on induction wing 23xhour bang up then moved over 2 west wing did just over 12xmonths in there then got shipped 2 eastchurch for last 6xmonths was ok in highpoint as it goes
dartmoors not victorian its georgian i think,, 1803... i used to work on the outside works so i was all over that jail... one of the best ptison,s i went too,, i actually like the moor,, wicked bird killer!
I was in there for 36 months. around 1981. 6 months in Exeter then Dartmoor. I remember going to a quarry and breaking big boulders into pieces. We worked in pairs and were given pneumatic drills to make holes and steel wedges that we banged into the holes to split these massive boulders. Eventually, once the rocks were of a certain size they would go into a big grinding machine. The small stones were used in making roads. This was around 1981. I also worked on the farm doing an assortment of things. I do remember the winter was cold but I made some great friends there. I was 23 at the time and it was the last prison i was ever in.
This is a more interesting story than the main video

I also joyed my stay there too so I went back for another go but now full of nonsense what a shame glad you enjoyed your stay my friend bless
One Tree Hill was a good show. I loved it back in the day, It was a soap that came on in the evenings.
Classic

In America I heard if you get in a fight, you get put in the hole (very basic cell, on your own, for a period of time), is this the same in English prisons?
If you do another . Mention the pasties
I worked in the kitchens making them
Hi mate, I often have thought do the prisoners smell the chip shop across the road. If so that must be murder. Nice fish and chips opposite the nick

My uncles in this prison and someone else I knew went there years ago.

Pity the vanquished is carved into the stone. Go see the prison museum. I was on ROTL there. Got good food and looked after. 👌
I went there a couple of year ago.
wish i could sleep 3 hours in the afternoon, oh forgot i have to work to keep people like you
I understand, I work 11 hour shifts now.

Would you ever get bullied there?
I didn't personally, but I imagine guys did. I preferred Dartmoor to a lot of other local jail's.
shit toast,no way wan na stay there,,,no way,,,
Did you have your own cell or u had to smell roomie farts?
